Good morning, Sassy wonders! Judi - I am all for the name changing. Keeps me on my toes, buys you a bit of entertainment. That is a gorgeous rainbow!
I am working on 3 and a half hours of sleep today, so by 2 pm I will either be cranky or comatose. I am sure the boys would choose comatose! Last night was our last summer league meet of the season (thank heavens!) and champs are next Friday and Saturday. Then, it's a month long break from swim practice.

and a nice vacation to the beach.

I really need to get away.
Bonnie - how did the ortho go? Is your bank account lighter and your girl's mouths heavier? I think that is the general plan, isn't it? Have you been pie-holing it lately?
Becca - when is your September vacation? Will the boys be back in school by then or not?
Angie - Becca is right about your cheese. Watch it - we can't have you getting ill and absent from defending us from a possibly errant Gertie. How are the doggies?
Tricia - Packing for camp is a challenge, don't you think? The first year I sent Barney to camp I packed a ton of stuff for him and I think he only wore about half of it. And, the soap was never opened.

We had to have a talk when he came home about personal hygiene.

I am sure you won't have the same issue with Kendall! Is the camp far away?
Julie - Atlas has not been showing up for swim practice. He's gone the way of that frog Becca sent me. Please tell him he can wear arm floaties if he needs to, but if he's going to be up at 3 am he might as well be backstroking.
Hi Granny, Rella, Heather and Kimmy!
